For Harmony.

WASHINGTON, Sept. IA writer
in the Washington Herald, COM
menting on the Oak View confer
ences of last week, says: "There is
concensus of opinion upon the point
that the President is formulating the
financial part of his message, and is
trying to make the section relating
to the tariff and surplus coincide with
the views of the gentleman from
Texas MIR. Scott), and the ex Speak
ers from Kentucky and Pennsyl-
vania.
"a startling rumor, which is not
without believers among those who
SHOULD know something of the Exec
utive's wishes and intentions, is that
the President would be much reliev-
ed if Mr.. Carlisle would give up his
ambition to be chosen Speaker for
the third time, and take the position
of Administration leader on the floor
of the House.
"Of course, it is quite impossible
to verify this rumor, but it is current
and not without reason. Those near
him know the President realizes that
something must be attempted in the
matter of tariff reform at the coming
session, if it is to be done during his
present term. He has been anxiously
and prayerfuIly scanning the list of
members elect to the Fiftieth Con-
gress to see what material for leader
there is among them. Thus far his
investigations do not seem to have
resulted satisfactorily. The number
of men is appallingly large. 1t may
be that David will appear to tackle
the protectionists' Goliath, but he
hasn't yet materialized.
"Then, too, as the Democratic con-
vention of 1888 draws near, and the
determination of Mr.. Cleveland to
run again becomes more and more
evident. he feels that the differences
in the party lines must be adjusted.
1t was with this object that Hon.
VIM. L. Scott went to the Democratic
convention at Allentown a fortnight
since, and played the role of the in
nocent fly to Mr.. Randall's spider.
Nobody is more unanimous or har-
monious and conciliatory than NJ.
Randall when he has his own way,
and he and his followers say he had
1t on the occasion mentioned.
"Hence it is that Mr., Carlisle, Mr..
Fairchild, Secretary of the Treasury !;
Mr.. Randall, Mr.. Mills and Mr.. Scott
each fixed in his sentiments and
determined not to give way-are try
ing to formulate an expression of
opinion for the President that will
meet the views of the party at large,
and unite it before the country in
time for the battle of 1885,"

We would have it distinctly UNDER
stood, that when we speak of the
dirty practices of Democrats. we do
not mean nor do we wish to imply
that all Democrats are guilty of cor
rupt practices. We are we'll aware
that if the assertion was made by us
it would not be true. There are many
Democrats in Baltimore city, in this,
and other counties of the State, who
have believed that the charges made
by the Republicans were not well
grounded, and who haye not hereto
fore taken the trouble to make suffi.
cient inquiry as to the methods of
their party. But in view of recent
events the eyes of all have been
opened and thousands in this State
who have voted the Democratic
ticket in the past will in the hope of
getting purity at elections support
the Republican ticket this fall, not
that they are Republicans, but be-
cause they believe as did the Repub-
licans of New York State upon a
memorable occasion, when thew
thought their party needed purifica-
ton. The party nominee, one of the
purest men in the party, Secretary
Folger, was beaten and Cleveland
elected governor by a majority of
two hundred thousand. -FredericE

1t is grim fight that you have on
your hands. Many of your choicest
spirits are in the penitentiary; its
yawning portals are opening for
more, and already, as L write, its
dark shadow is projected over your
guilty registers. That is the kind of a
fight it is. Do you think that the

have hidden, will stand before the

In the last issue of the REPUBLI-
CAN we referred to the fact that a
very respectable contingent of the
Democratic party, led by John K.
Cowen, ESQ.,, had announced their
intention to support the Republican
nominees on the State ticket. The
leader of the Independents in Balti-
more city, Mr.. John K, Cowen, has
since the publication of our last issue,
prepared and published in the Balti-
more Sun, (the Democratic organ of
Maryland an open letter addressed
to the editor of the Sun, in which he
sets forth the motives which govern
him in his support of the Republican
ticket. The letter and the declara-
lions it contains seemed to be imper-
atiyely demanded by existing cir
eumstanccs,
1t has been asserted again and
again that Mr.. Governs support of
the Republican candidates was secur-
ed by a deal between the Baltimore
and Ohio railroad company and the
Republican convention, under which
that convention adopted its anti-con-
stitutional convention plank, The
charge has been distinctly made that
the B. & o. Co, is behind Mr., Cow
en-, because it does not want new
constitution, and that the Company
is opposed TO new constitution be-
canse it fears a new constitution
would subject its property, which is
now exempt. to taxation. Mr.. Cow
en- shows by facts that are incontro-
vertible and authorities that are con-
elusive, that the status of the proper
ty of the B, & o. Company has been
fixed, and that it is not within the
power of a constitutional convention
to change it. He also shows that the
offices of the B. & o. Company are
supporting the regular Democrat
ticket, and that therefore, as a mat
ter of course, his action is perfectly
free in the matter. There is another
thing which Mr.. Cowen shows, and
that is, that one Of the purposes Of

NEW YORK, Sept. 9.-R. G. Dun
& Co., in their weekly review of
trades. says: Commerce and indus
try have improved while speculation
has slackened. A very different re-
suit was expected when it was an
nounced a week ago that a syndicate
had undertaken to raise $4,000, 900
for the Baltimore & Ohio and to
establish harmony between the trunk
lines. At first stock rose quickly an
average of 81 per share, but soon it
was seen that the borrowing of mil
lions by great company did not
necessarily mean or bring prosperity,
and heavy declines in Baltimore &
Ohio and other stocks affected by the
Ives failure followed, and a gradual
reaction toward lower prices and
speculative inactivity has continued
this week. On the other hand evil
dence appears of a decided improve
ment in legitimate business with
larger sales, larger production and a
more wholesome feeling even in
branches lately most depressed.
The improvement in the wooden
goods trade is clearly marked, though
that trade cannot yet be called active.
Lower prices for wooden goods en-
courage manufacturers and the de-
mand for goods is broadening. Dis
tribution of cotton continues large,
with especial demand for the best
qualities. Iron furnaces of 1873, 725
tons capacity were in blast Septem-
Der /, the largest output yet reported.
The increase since a year ago is 142
per cent. Disheartentment in some
quarters lest an output far surprising
the consumptiYe demand should de-
press prices is met by the fact that
the best grades are scarce and well
sustained, though in other grades
and brands not we'll known weakness
appears.
The mills in which ir on is worked
into forms of use are generally press
ed with orders; bar iron has a good
demand; the orders for sheet, plate
and tank iron press the workers to
their full capacity. Makers of struc-
tural iron are crowded. and the nail
business slightly better. In steel
rails, though even the Thomas Com
pany sells at S36 for winter delivery
and.the yielding in prices disheartens
some makers, there is a general dis.
position to shut out foreign products
and facilities for producing at lower
cost are steadily increasing.

'SBOnanza."

The critic should be something more
than fault finder. In an English mag
azine an attempt is made to give series
of 'AmerIcsnisms," that is to say words
coined or invented in America. Under
the word BONANZA" the definition is
given-'Spanish, a big scheme by which
much money is made, whether honestly
or dishonesty"
Upon this q critic pounces, and says
that bonanza means "good fortune or
good luck"
Bonanza is indeed Spanish word. and
very naturally came into use in Nevada
or California. But it does not mean ssa
big scheme" or good luck" 1t is a
nautical a-going-word, and means
fair weather at sea. II the reader will
refer 10 st. Matthew, xiii, 26, he will
read that after the Lord rebuked the
wind and the sea, There was a gIeat
calm" And il reference is next had to
the Spanish version Uf the New Testa-
ment, he will find the phrase there Rivei,
luna grande bonanza" It is easy to
understand how the word came into it's
hgurative use--as meaning happy, calm
aid good hope, after a weary search
But neither the glossary nor it's critic is
quite correct in the definitions cited
above.

Ancient TanRerles.

In addition to sandals, the Egyptian
curriers' made the coverings Of seats OF
sofas, bow-cases, quiVers. the furniture
of war chariots and the decorations OF
| hsrps and shields. Stamped and besu-
tifully embossed leather straps have been
| frequently found fastened round the
mummies. The practice Of stretching
the tanned skin on a wooden frame, as
is the custom of European ssddlers, and
/ the semi-circular knife In vogue with
| the curriers' of the present day, are both
distinctly represented at Tbebes.
The shoemakeTs are one OF the very
/ lowest castles In India. Leather is con
sidered unclean by the Hindoos, and
consequently those who work in it are
dealed. 1t is alleged Of the shoemske1s
! that they eat the flesh Of domestic ami
mails that die a natural death. They
drag or carry away the carcass to their
! own pant OF the town or village, cut it
mp in pieces, and distribute the flesh
among themselves III sufficient portions
for use, and clean the hide and put it
away for sale or to be manufactured into
something.
1t is a singular circumstance that the
Chinese have no acquaintance with any
process Of tanning by vegetable juices,
but use only animal and mineral sub
stances hence the inferiOrity of their
prepared skins
The myIiads OF victims slain In the
Jewish sacrifices must have afforded tie
skin market an ample supply, The
scarcity of glass. pottery OF eaItbenware
would, however, cause q constant de-
msnd for leAthern bottles and drinking
vessels, and then by reason Of climate
defective manufacture, and by exposure
to the process of fermentation, we're
very perishable-peIhsps even more 50
than we're the brittle vessels Of glass or
clay.
Only one tanner is mentioned in the
Bible-the Simon who was in all proba-
bility q member of the church at Joppa,
and IN whose house Peter found tenn
pOrsry home when the messengers of
Cornelius were informed "He lodgeth
with one Simon, a tanner, whose house
is by the seaside. There are numerous
wells OF water In close proximity to the
town Of Jopps. This would render il q
suitable locality for a tannery. and the
adjacent port would facilitate the ship
ments OF cargo in great request, not
only through all the Mediterranean
coast. but far mp the Nile, and among
the semi-civilized dwellers Of northern
Europe, Several tsnneries OF great an
tiquity still exist near the shore, one Of
which is said by tradition TO have been
that Of Simon. the tanner.
We have many pieces OF skins and
OF leather from the Egyptian tOmbs in a
state Of perfect preservation, which had
passed through the hands Of a tanner
more than thirty centuries ago, and
which, but for the invention or discov-
ely Of this process must have perished IN
atew hours after they had hf the carcas-
ses from which they had been stripped.
